These are southern Dems, so you can always expect a significant proportion to defect to the Republican in federal races. But a big chunk of that undecided are Dems who distrust Lunsford given his history of stabbing Democrats in the back (by such things as endorsing a Republican for governor a few years back). Lunsford has worked to repair that damage and appears genuine in his efforts, but as we've seen with some Clinton primary supporters, distrust can linger on.Those undecideds wouldn't be enough to win the race, of course, but it would tighten it up. Obviously, Lunsford still needs to bring some of those McConnell Democrats home, as well as reverse the independent numbers (currently breaking for McConnell 52-36).
As for the presidential, this was a 56-35 race back in late July, and it's a 55-37 race today. Again, no real movement from last time.
